Paul Smith has long been a lover of Land Rovers, and it is therefore of no surprise that he has designed the one pictured above for a custom edit version of the Land Rover Defender.
The car features an exterior of 27 different painted colours and the interior houses black leather with blue contrast stitching. That’s not to forget the quirky decent detail he adds (like a hand – painted set of keys inside the glove compartment).
“I wanted deep, rich colors, but at the same time I wanted them to work together yet be surprising,” said Smith of his decision to choose hues inspired by the English countryside.
The collaboration serves as a good-bye to the model, which will be discontinued this year in preparation for a new edition that better meets today’s emissions and crash-test regulations. You can find Smith’s Defender on display now at the brand’s Mayfair shop. But don’t get excited about owning one of these rainbow confections—only one was produced as a display! We wonder if Smith himself has one of these beauties…
If you’re more into Paul Smith’s clothes, rather than his designed Land Rover Defender, you can find a range of SS15 from Smith, available from Garment Quarter: http://bit.ly/1D1AIb3
